Domain-adapted variant of Qwen2.5-3B-Instruct, fine-tuned on automotive instruction-following data using QLoRA (4-bit quantized LoRA fine-tuning). Created as an experimental learning and research project focused on modern parameter-efficient fine-tuning workflows in 2026-style LLM engineering.
Specialized toward automotive-related question answering and technical explanations. Trained on a curated subset of 4,000 samples from the BAAI automotive industry instruction dataset.

- Experimental fine-tuned model — not intended for production safety systems
- May hallucinate or generate inaccurate automotive advice
- Not suitable for safety-critical or professional mechanical decision-making
- Trained on a relatively small subset (~4k samples); generalization may be limited
